this is where anti malware programs should be working for you. I work in the tech industry and yes while its easy to make a script to look for a certain file from your hardrive, retrieving it is a bit of a stretch unless you were baited to another form that allowed the program to send the information back. I hope this serve as a lesson for everyone, the development of softwares to protect you from these kinds of attacks are there for a reason.

Nonetheless owning a cold wallet is always a great layer of security. There is no such thing as Overly secured especially ehen it thousands or millions worth of money is what you are talking about.

Be careful out there folks 1. Never joins something that guarantees and are always to good to be true and 2. Always be secured.

Very useful advice. I know several people who recommended the same stuff that you advised which helped me out. So many people jump into the crypto world head first without thinking too much and focusing on quick profits who are targeted by hackers and scammers for easy money. Such investors conclude that this is mainly the problem with the crypto market itself and begin spreading FUD like crazy which shows how naive they truly are. For example, some people were spreading FUD recently saying that Binance was hacked while the truth was a trading bot was hacked. Be smart people.
